Dear Santa 2009

Dear Santa,

The last few years I have asked for protection against robotic lawnmowers and real life furbies. Maybe, it's the recession but this year, I want actual stuff. Oh no, not just any stuff. I want awesome stuff. For your consideration are:

The ninja master prep blender and food processor. Yes, I already have a fancy blender that works for all of my food processing needs. No, I do not have that many food processing needs. However, I fell in love with the infomercial. As far as I can tell it's just a regular food processor that has the word ninja on it. Good enough for me. However I just love the phrases "ninja technology" and "ninja blade technology". Finally we have harnessed the awesomeness of ninjas into kitchen appliances. My current blender is not a ninja and therefore not good enough. Also, I suspect that whoever came up with this marketing campaign would be a suitable spouse for me. Please introduce us Santa.



These are not shoes that I would ever actually wear but I want them anyways. I was recently introduced to the word "shootie". I guess it's half boot half shoe. I don't think I'd want to marry whoever came up with that word. My money is on the ninja marketing campaign guy. I just want a pair so whenever someone says "I like your shoes." I can say "Excuse me, they are shooties."

Please let me know if the ninja marketing campaign genius has a hot older brother that is not a pig. Thanks.

My friend just texted to say she bought a pair of shooties. I'd never heard of them. Now, you mention them in your post. OBVIOUSLY, this is a huge sign and I must buy me a pair!! Whatever they are!

I love your letters to Santa.

If I was St. Nick, I'd totally give you whatever you asked for.

I'd never heard of a shootie either--interesting. I'm fascinated with the Snuggie. Those commericals, with the man in the bright blue snuggie...no man of my acquaintance would be caught dead in one of those. (Although I'm sure they are very snuggly...) I recently saw a dog snuggie in Walmart.

Ha! I've been wanting a good blender. I guess I need to look at the NINJA. Ninja performance without Ninja prices? Works for me...

I'm a friend of LEstes65. :)
